Biography

Matt Canada is in his second season as the Steelers' offensive coordinator after being promoted to the position on January 25, 2021. He was hired by the Steelers as the quarterbacks coach on January 15, 2020, and spent one year in the role.

The offense saw an overhaul in personnel during Canada's first season at the helm, as nearly half of the players to start in Week 1 of 2021 weren't on the team the year prior. Rookies Najee Harris and Pat Freiermuth were especially influential additions, as Harris set records for most rushes (307), rushing yards (1,200), receptions (74) and receiving yards (467) by a rookie running back in franchise history and led the NFL in touches (381). Freiermuth finished his debut season setting a franchise record for receptions by a rookie tight end (60) and receiving yards by a rookie tight end (497).
